Over the last decade, Daphne has helped Start-ups, Scale-Ups and Fortune 500 businesses build and scale global Customer Success teams to service 200K+ customers and $2B+ ARR.
Her journey in Customer Success started with a eureka moment she had in 2011: “When we deliver value to our customers, we won’t just retain their business... We will capture more of their demand.”
Backed by this belief, she spent the following 4 years helping build a 'CS-as-a-Service' business. We generated thousands of SuccessQLs for our customers and proved early on that Customer Success could be a revenue driver.
By focusing on Customer-Led-Growth, She has helped the businesses she worked with achieve 130%+ NRR. Today, She head up Customer Success at HubSpot where her teams serve thousands of customers worldwide.
Since that light-bulb moment, she has invested my energy into building and scaling Customer Success teams to be the second engine of growth for tech businesses and helping others do it too.
